Kids' rooms frequently end up with scuffs on the walls.
Step 1
Dampen a washcloth with rubbing alcohol. Dab the wet washcloth onto the mark until it disappears.
Step 2
Use a toothbrush and plain white toothpaste (non-gel). Apply a small amount of toothpaste directly to the brush and gently "buff out" the scuff mark.
Step 3
Use clear clean water on a washcloth and remove any residue left on the wall.
